"The need for a culture of innovation in education."
In the inaugural episode of the K20CONNECTIONS podcast, hosts Susan and Sam discuss pressing issues in education, particularly focusing on cybersecurity and the implications of emerging technologies. They explore the challenges faced by school districts in protecting student data, the importance of understanding the environment over merely purchasing tools, and the need for a culture of privacy and security.
The conversation also touches on recent legislation aimed at addressing these issues and the practical steps districts can take to implement effective policies.
